I have been waiting for a question like this . Jesus is not GOD, He is GOD's only begotten son. This is confusing to a lot of people because the new translations of the bible has taken GOD's name out and replaced it with Lord, thus making people believe that they are one in the same. Most Churches also do not teach the differance between GOD the father and Jesus the son. GOD's name in JEHOVAH if said in English and YAHWEH in Hebrew. Jehovah Definition: The personal name of the only true God. His own self-designation. Jehovah is the Creator and, rightfully, the Sovereign Ruler of the universe. "Jehovah" is translated from the Hebrew Tetragrammaton, ????, which means "He Causes to Become." These four Hebrew letters are represented in many languages by the letters JHVH or YHWH. Where is God's name found in Bible translations that are commonly used today? The New English Bible: The name Jehovah appears at Exodus 3:15; 6:3. See also Genesis 22:14; Exodus 17:15; Judges 6:24; Ezekiel 48:35. (But if this and other translations use "Jehovah" in several places, why not be consistent in using it at every place where the Tetragrammaton appears in the Hebrew text?)Revised Standard Version: A footnote on Exodus 3:15 says: "The word LORD when spelled with capital letters, stands for the divine name, YHWH." Today's English Version: A footnote on Exodus 6:3 states: "THE LORD: . . . Where the Hebrew text has Yahweh, traditionally transliterated as Jehovah, this translation employs LORD with capital letters, following a usage which is widespread in English versions." King James Version: The name Jehovah is found at Exodus 6:3; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 12:2; 26:4. See also Genesis 22:14; Exodus 17:15; Judges 6:24. American Standard Version: The name Jehovah is used consistently in the Hebrew Scriptures in this translation, beginning with Genesis 2:4.

Aniset, I must respectfully disagree with your statement that "Jesus is not GOD, He is GOD's only begotten son." He is most certainly God as many scriptures testify to. How do you account for Thomas exclaiming to Him "My Lord and my God?" Christ did not chastise nor rebuke him for that! Additionally, Christ is the Eternal Son of God without doubt. However, as John 1:14 denotes, "He is the only begotten of the Father". There is a marked difference between begotten and created! Like kind begets like, the Creator always being greater than the creation. Jesus was begotten, but NOT created. I hope we're clear on this point:-) While scripture is clear that God is one, and there is but one God (Is. 44:6, John 10:30), it is also equally clear that God subsists in three distinct Persons ( Matt. 3:16-17). If Jesus is not God, then how would you account for and explain the grammatical construction of 1 John 5:20? By the way, are you a Jehovah's Witness? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
